[New Act] Violin, talk and dancing. 12 mins; one. Good little small time comedy offering. These two boys in the act, which is opened by one starting to play the violin off key. He is interrupted by his partner who starts a routine of talk trying to sell something to the audience. It is the old fashioned book idea, but it gets laughs from small timers. The boys later go in for some dancing with rube stuff predominating, Their double dance at the finish sent them away nicely.
